If you’ve ever wished climate change conversations felt less like homework, December is about to deliver. The All Living Things Environmental Film Festival (ALT EFF) — India’s largest festival dedicated to cinema for change — returns with its 5th edition from December 4–14, with films that look climate change squarely in the eye. 

The 10-day festival will see more than 80 films from across the world; producers like Zoya Akhtar, Kiran Rao and Dia Mirza backing major titles; and actors Richa Chadha, Randeep Hooda and Milind Soman joining as goodwill ambassadors. This year also marks a landmark leap with India’s first Rs 40 lakh film fund dedicated entirely to environmental storytelling.
